To run the traceroute utility:

  1. In the menu, go to the SD-WAN → CPE section.

    A table of CPE devices is displayed.

  2. Click the CPE device on which you want to run the traceroute utility.

    The settings area is displayed in the lower part of the page. You can expand the settings area to fill the entire page by clicking the expand icon . By default, the Configuration tab is selected, which displays general information about the CPE device. This tab also displays the table of Out-of-band management tasks being performed by the orchestrator.

  3. Select the Utilities → Traceroute tab.

    The traceroute utility settings are displayed.

  4. In the Destination IP address field, enter the IPv4 address to which you want the CPE device to send a series of ICMP requests.
  5. If you want the CPE device to send the series of ICMP requests from a specific previously created network interface, in the Source interface drop-down list, select a network interface.
  6. If you want the CPE device to use the DNS server to resolve IP addresses to domain names when creating the report with the utility output, select the Resolve DNS names check box. You can specify a DNS server when creating or editing a network interface. IP addresses that cannot be resolved to domain names are also displayed in the report. This check box is cleared by default.
  7. In the Probes timeout (sec.) field, enter the time in seconds after which the CPE device must receive a series of ICMP responses to consider the request a success. Range of values: 1 to 30. The default setting is 3.
  8. In the Max hops field, enter the maximum number of hops for the series of ICMP requests. Range of values: 1 to 60. The default setting is 10.
  9. Click Run.

The traceroute utility is run on the CPE device, and a report containing the output of the ping utility is displayed in the lower part of the settings area.
